You were kind enough to interest yourself in my plight some years ago when I was vainly pounding the aidewallca of Roohester - an unempl078d stenographer - 111 aearoh of work, at a time 'llhen lllilliona were idle throughout 1he countryside, 1hrough your interest and that of the late Senator Royal s . Copeland, I was offered a position 111 Waahington in the early Spring of 1934 at whiah time I entered the Oovel'llllllll1t Service as Stenographer on the Negro staff of the U, s . Divi s ion of Subsistence Homesteads, Department of the Interior. I owe muah to you for the improvement 111 my economic statue , the enriohed exper ience I have acquired and the additional t raining in secretarial perform.nce whioh I h ave gained u a civil servant in the Federal GoverDIIIIInt .

Subsistence Homesteads, ae you know, wae one of President Rooaevelt' 1 special experimental projects.

The Resettlement Administration, ~eaded by Dr. Rexfor d Guy Tugwell, absorbed the pers onnel and progr.m of Subsistence Homestead• in 1935· Farm Security Administration came into existence from this reorgani­zation a little later and bec1111111 an integral part of the Depariamt of Agriculture . PSA baa quite recently reoeiTed baaic legillation and ie now the F&rmere Home Administr ation, haYing had added to it the personnel end functions of the Emerpnoy crop a. Feed Loan Di'rldon of the Farm credit . Adm1nhtratio:a..

Though I haTe practically "gr~ up" with the or~anizatio:a. I have only been advanced to the aluaifioatio:a. of CAF- 4 in -re than twelve years of oontinuous serrtce . llhile I han been oontined to the 1-r grades and low salary braokets over tbil period, working in the oapaoi­tiee of Ste:a.ograpber, Junior Ste:a.ographer, Assistant Clerk-stenographer, Secretary, Clerk and (preae:a.t poaition) Clerk-stenographer , other typiata and stenographer• baTe ateadily ad'Y&Ilced to muoh higher gradea, be-'":'g

administrative assistants , executive assistants and other hi!h ~rade posi tiona. Others wi tal l!Uch shorter periods of aer'fioe han been rapidly advanced to hi!;her gredee 'Via "double jump" pr omotione . About nll the typists and stenographers who bee;an in the "early daye" are ncm in higher olassifiostions and Gr ade 4 111 more or len used as an entrance grade for new employees in moet of the agenoiee todtcy" o I m only in the third step of that gr ade at the present time.

I have had Civil Ser"fice status for quite sane time, h a"fing aoquired Civil Service ratings as Senior and Junior Stenographer • My EfticieDOy Ratings for the years 1939 through 1943 were "VERY GOOD" and for the years 1944 and 1945 "EXCEIJ.ENT" •

I desire and would welcome a change . As a step i n that direction, I have recently forwarded to the Peraoxmel Analyeis DiTiaion ot tJlf 'Ill¥ application for work as a Clerk-stenographer aDd it 11 earnestly hoped that it will merit fnor able cons 1deratioJu though I realir.e the percentage of American personnel will be l imited and that •rioan Negr o personnel will of neceaaity be of an even smaller percentage.

I know your endorsement of my application would be of wry great value lllld I 11111 wondering ?.bather you would again honor 11111 w1 th a word in my

behalf. I 11111 very well aoqu.inted w1 th hard warlc and have no illudone about t he "worlcload" of the Secretaria11.and staffs ot the Un1 ted !latione.

I apologhe for taking up your time w1 th thie l engthy letter but I wanted to furnish you IQDe info~tion e.S to fll¥ employment hie't<ry before ma!dng the above respectful request . Whatenr you may find it in your power to do in my behalf will be greatly apprecillted .

Yours lolost Respectfully,
